Empathy is often misunderstood in the business world, but it is a powerful strategy that develops effective leadership. Empathy begins with having a shared understanding. In this episode of the Business Chat Podcast, I have a fascinating chat with Daniel Murray about leading performance by using empathy.

Demonstrating empathy in business allows for effective and highly engaged teams to flourish.
